To be honest though you jumped on the defensive right away and started off on the wrong foot with all of us. You could have just said "My bad sorry I posted these here I didn't realize they didn't apply to this thread", but instead you insulted someone for having a higher quality wheel and then proceeded to rip on other people for buying the expensive wheels. Honestly, it's not a wise decision to rip on quality wheels in a thread dedicated to quality wheels. You are now just fighting a losing battle.

If you like your wheels, great! Why fight for their dignity? I doubt they care what we think. If you are happy with them then that's all that really matters right?

well minus the student loans, rent, car payment, other bills, and your over-priced Tenzo's i'd imagine not much is left over

So then the age old question is asked... Why did you post in a thread dedicated to expensive wheel setups?

Bash us if you please, some of us didn't buy this car because it was affordable. I got it because it was a clean slate I could modify and quality rims became one of those decisions I made. Each person modifies their car according to their usage. Your wheels work for you, take that and move on just don't expect them to reach "baller" status when your missing something from the equation. 2 + _ can never equal 4 without that other 2.

im not boosting, if i wanted a cheap a$$ car with a turbo i would have bought a srt-4. i wanted something clean that i could evetually turbo. but not neccasrly my first priority.

No I like spending money on looks and performance... I don't think I said that I didn't. I have come to the conclusion that you are a hot-head and really need to chill out. Honestly I was just trying to be nice and let you calmly leave this thread, but I guess you are going down in a blaze of gunfire huh...

...and yeah, it doesn't take 60 pages to find out this thread is about High End / Custom / Expensive wheels. I wonder where I got that information. Oops... looks like I stopped being Mr. Nice Guy!

If you are going to be a jerk that's not tolerable. If you are just defending your purchase, I can understand.

But you're not... so GTFO.

I may not agree with the way people bash other people about their choice of car parts, and I may not like a lot of the people who post in here, but I can say that 95% of the cars posted in here are not lame. And mad money was dropped into the cars, because thats what the people wanted to do with "THEIR" cars.

Come on man dont drag this out, it's a battle you will not win.

and do add insult to injury, my wheels out do your wheels 100% and I still can't post in here....
